I'm looking forward to making a battle report of the game when I get back home and show you guys how things turned out.

Too few troops, I would knock off a carnifex and add in 30 more termagaunts or hormagaunts. I mean, you got the synapse for it.

I agree this needs more and tougher troops, unless you are planning to only play it in Annihilation missions.
